The Council of Trent taught that human nature is such that it can not easily rise to the meditation of divine things without external aids, and for this reason the Church as a loving mother has established certain rituals [...] to make more evident the majesty of a sacrifice so great and bring the minds of the faithful, with these visible signs of religion and piety, to the sublime contemplation of reality (DS 1746).

At The Energy Project, we help our clients develop something we call rituals -- highly specific behaviors, done at precise times, so they eventually become automatic and no longer require conscious will or discipline.
